But completely important.
NetworkManager sets a status that you're on- or off-line, and any
application can check for that. It doesn't individually inform every
network-using application about its status. NetworkManager, nor any
notifier, doesn't need to be coded to support this, that, and the other
application.
But any application that wants to know network status can be coded to
check for status in one place.
